Yoga with Mairi

Bridge of Allan

After traveling seven seas, both geographically and professionally, Mairi started running Yoga with Mairi classes in central Scotland, in 2018, gradually growing a small but inclusive community of dedicated Hatha Yoga practitioners. Now getting close to 1000 of teaching hours delivered. Mairi started practicing Hatha Yoga 20 years ago, and had an honour to learn from many amazing teachers across the world. Her practice was, however, particularly influenced by the Bihar and Hridaya schools of Yoga, and this orientation led her to discover the Akasha Yoga Academy (Bali/Thailand), where she completed her 200hrs Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in 2017. Mairi also holds a First Class Certificate in Philosophy of Yoga, from Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies affiliated to the University of Oxford (2016). Besides that, and somewhat relevant to her teaching, Mairi holds a continental MD qualification from her first degree, and she is a Master of Science in social medicine from her second degree. She also holds a postgraduate qualification in Cultural and Gender Studies. Since her first qualification from the School of Medicine at the University of Belgrade (Serbia), and until recently, Mairi was an academic researcher in social medicine and medical sociology, and for some time, also a lecturer. She was specialising in qualitative research and understanding health and access to healthcare, with a particular interest in complexity theory, holistic health & integrative healthcare.

Bristol

The Old Bristolians’ Society exists to allow former pupils and staff to maintain contact with other Old Bristolians, and through the Society allow them to support the work of the School. The Society is a separate body from the School and is run almost exclusively by volunteers. The President holds office for a year: other officers and members of the Management Committee are chosen by election and normally stay in office for a longer period. We are always keen to recruit new faces on to the Committee or hear from Old Bristolians prepared to help with the running of events. In particular, we seek more involvement from young Old Bristolians, especially females, in order to reflect the co-educational status of the School. The BGS Foundation aims to bring long-term additional income to the School through charitable giving. This enables the wider BGS family to give something back so that the next generation of children can benefit from extra resources, facilities and bursaries which could not otherwise be afforded from fee income alone. Support comes from parents, former parents, staff and Governors, Old Bristolians, charitable trusts and foundations which makes a genuine difference to the life of our school. The Old Bristolians’ & Foundation Office would be delighted to hear from anyone willing to serve on the Committee or to participate in some other way. In addition, the views of Old Bristolians as to the type of event/activities the Society should be providing are also welcomed.

Hello – I’m Jonathan Pollinger, a freelance social media and AI trainer and I’m here to help you make the most of social media and AI. Social media and AI can make a huge difference to your business or organisation as they can help achieve your business or organisation's objectives. MY BACKGROUND I’ve been working as a social media trainer providing straightforward, practical training for small businesses and charities since 2009…before social media for business was a thing! Before that I’d always been interested in bringing people together using technology, just as social media does today. Since 2022 I've also provided AI training on tools like ChatGPT [https://chatgpt.com] and Microsoft Copilot [https://m365.cloud.microsoft/chat]. I’ve over 110 testimonials on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanpollinger/] that demonstrate the quality of my training. Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked with small businesses, PR and social media agencies, charities, an MP, local government, business owners, other freelancers and more recently social media influencers. As well as training I provide social media services to B2B businesses via Boost Social Agency [https://boostsocial.agency/].  JONATHAN POLLINGER – SOCIAL MEDIA TRAINER’S TESTIMONIALS “Jonathan combines precise technical expertise with a tolerant and humane approach towards those of us who have been a little slow on the uptake with new media.” Martin Horwood [https://blog.martinhorwood.net/wp/], Former MP for Cheltenham. “I’ve been blown away by the number of business enquiries I’ve received from Twitter since my training with Jonathan. Brilliant!” Sarah Townsend [https://www.sarahtownsendeditorial.co.uk/], Sarah Townsend Editorial Limited “The training was fantastic – very much targeted towards our team and what we do, so we didn’t waste time with things that we already knew.” Jo Evans [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jo-evans-2427a536/], Degreeplus Manager, University of Gloucestershire If I’m not providing training, I’ll probably be out running around Cardiff Bay. I love running the roads and taking part in races as it helps keep me fit and gives me energy. There can’t be many sports where you can continue to improve at my age! A bridge is known locally as ‘Pollinger Bridge’ as I run over it so often. In 2012 I co-founded Laptop Friday, a co-working and networking event, which takes place regularly in Gloucestershire and Devon.

The first question we are often asked, after 'What's your name again?' or 'How do you spell that?', is 'What does it mean?', we wanted a word to demonstrate our point of focus, the delegate. Alumno in Spanish means pupil or student. It is in its Latin translation that we find the reason for choosing Alumno as it means to nurture, nourish, educate and train.   For us that is what training is, not lecturing people and hoping 10% of it sticks, but nurturing and finding the best method of encouraging people to absorb new information and truly learn. For most people that means fun, interactive, engaging education. That's something every training provider tells you they deliver but, sadly, very few do. With over 30 years of experience, running sessions from 1-2-1 to an amphitheatre of over 500 we pride ourselves on getting better much feedback than any of our competitors and much better knowledge retention and application rates after the course. We tailor every session to the client's specific needs, most firms will say that and then churn out the same 'cookie cutter' course as before. If you want cheap, ineffective training then there are lots of companies out there. A recent study found that 12% of people who attended training would apply what they had learned to their job, that means 88% of all training is a waste of time and money! If you want to discuss your training needs with a team that really care and deliver 120% of your expectation every time, we would love to have a chat.
